That's the point. They do. Freely and without a hint of modesty about it, they stock, advertise, sell, and promote "Christmas" stuff. It's all over their website, it blinks at you when you walk in their store. And it's not even Thanksgiving yet :~D.
I just think it's funny that so many replies on this thread express outrage, and even ping their outrage lists, without checking it out! :~D
And I hate WalMart, it's too big. :~D
Happy Holidays!*
*Happy Holidays in no way wishes to insult anyone's holiday. I't merely an expression I use to give greetings to those who I may not talk to again during the holiday season, that I hope they have a happy Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hannukah, New Years, and whatever other holiday they celebrate this winter.
Too bad that's too long to fit in a tagline. (I made a few additions.)
Since the thread had almost 200 replies when I pung it out, I took the article at face value. It certainly pays to read all the thread first. I still haven't read it. So the entire article and emails were bogus, then. Well, when I have a time, I'll have to read the whole dang thing.
